Abstract

|
|
Recently we have experienced one case of long tracheal stenosis which developed after pulmonary tuberculosis.
The patient was 32 years old woman, 165cm in height. She complained severe dyspnea and headache. We could hear the inspiratory wheezing sound and stridor without stethoscope.
Preoperative tracheogram and chest CT scan showed long tracheal stenosis from the posterior portion of clavicular head to the upper portion of carina and right main bronchus.
Under the general anesthesia, the stenotic segment, about 7.5cm, was resected and end to and anastomosis was performed successfully through the right anterolateral thoracotomy and supraclavicular collar incision.
Her postoperative course was uneventful and the patient has remained well till now.
